Chris Hani's killer released on parole: Inside EWN Roundtable discussion weighs in on the law of the matter
JOHANNESBURG - After several attempts at applying for medical parole, Janusz Walus' plea will be granted as Chief Justice Raymond Zondo ordered Justice and Correctional Services Minister Ronald Lamola to release him on parole.
Walus was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1993 for assassinating South Africa’s beloved South African Communist Party leader and anti-apartheid activist Chris Hani.Some believe the ruling was constitutional while others like Hani's family, particularly, his wife Limpho think Walus should not be released due withholding the truth about the assassination.
The judgment delivered by the Constitutional Court on Monday, 21 November 2022, is sickeningly disappointing, to say the least. This is how the South African Communist Party General Secretary Solly Mapaila reacted on behalf of the Party to the judgment.
